Okay I have a 07 Dodge charger 2.7.. I have to press the gas and break to keep it running. It will not idle on its own it stalls everytime. I've cleaned the throttle body intake and changed the spark plugs as well as put heet and new gas in it and still the same outcome. I've undone my battery for 30 minutes after each thing I've done as well.. also turned my key on and pressed the gas pedal completely to the floor and back on then tried to start it to clear the
)⚡( but it didn't clear it after putting the new spark plugs in it went off a second then right back on flashing now steadily on.
Oh also sometimes when I press the gass pedal it takes a second to I guess register that I pressed it. When I hold the break and press the gas at a steady spot it the rpms move up and down as well
Please help!

Holy macaroni! Sounds like the Charger needs an exorcism more than a mechanic!
Ok, here are a few items to check:
-Idle Air Control Valve (IAC): It could be dirty or failing, which affects idling.
-Throttle Position Sensor (TPS): A faulty TPS can cause delayed throttle response and idling issues.
-Vacuum Leaks: Inspect for any vacuum leaks, as they can cause stalling.
-Mass Air Flow Sensor (MAF): If it's dirty or failing, it can affect the air-fuel mixture.
Since the check engine light is on, scanning for error codes can give more specific insights.
Good luck!
